You are starting a business and you need help in constructing an employment contract that can protect your business and ensure that future employees will not become a competitive threat to your company after they resign. This includes them potentially engaging in misappropriation of your trade secrets, which puts your business in danger.
We can help you craft and customise an employment contract with confidentiality and non-competiton undertakings. We will also place emphasis on how financial resources have already been invested therefore, employees will be liable to pay a liquidated sum for any breach of contract. Furthermore, we will ensure that the contract has clear and precise clauses to protect all intellectual and propietary rights and trademarks. If necessary, we can get an injunction to pass off any other infringement actions.
After years of hard work and research, you invented something that will add great value to your business. However, you are unsure of how to protect your intellectual property and register it as a trademark.

Additionally, an injunction can be called to restrain and compel the delivery and destruction of all infringed articles. Lastly, all directors of the infringing company will be made to sign a Statutory Declaration and publish an apology printed on newspapers.
